Drama School Dropout

We chat about our trip to Broadway, the reopening of HadesTown, Brian forcing his family to finish their dinner to watch him perform in the living room, the line that cemented his place in the hall of iconic movie quotes, the ten step audition process for The School Of Rock, being one of the only forms of LGBT representation in the early 2000’s, struggling with the pressures of the media, how great Jack Black is, his new single, his journey with music, his upcoming album, his struggles with accents, both of our struggles of studying a craft and artform within an academic setting and Heather Spiden is back for another segment of ‘This Is Where We Update You’.
